Map results

Anubis

FURIA took Anubis 13-11 - KSCERATO's 1.24 series rating the primary individual driver of their Map 1 control. The 2-round winning margin gave FURIA the series lead before FaZe's Nuityu stand-in system had found its tactical footing against FURIA's established preparation.

Nuke

FaZe levelled the series on Nuke 13-7 - the most comprehensive map of the series and the surface where the defining individual moment of BLAST Rivals 2026 Group B arrived. frozen secured a crucial 1v3 post-plant ninja defuse inside a smoke - a mechanical execution under maximum elimination pressure that gave FaZe the map win and the psychological momentum that their Ancient closing map was built upon. His 1v3 smoke defuse in a situation that statistically favoured FURIA confirmed frozen's individual ceiling is the highest of any FaZe player - a mechanical execution moment that no stand-in IGL could have created.

Ancient

FaZe closed Ancient 13-9 - their stand-in IGL system finding the collective execution that their 5-match pre-BLAST losing streak had suggested was absent. frozen's 1.28 series rating with a 58-42 K-D reflected a player whose individual momentum from the Nuke 1v3 smoke defuse carried directly into the decider.

Standout performances

frozen posted a 1.28 series rating with a 58-42 K-D and 82.3 ADR - the highest individual rating of the match and the series MVP. His 1v3 smoke defuse on Nuke was the defining individual moment of BLAST Rivals 2026 Group B - a mechanical execution under elimination pressure that confirmed his individual ceiling is operating at its highest level despite FaZe's IGL system disruption.

KSCERATO posted a 1.24 series rating with a 54-44 K-D and 86.1 ADR - the highest individual output on the losing side. His competitive output across all 3 maps confirmed FURIA's individual ceiling was genuine - but frozen's smoke defuse and FaZe's Nuke and Ancient collective execution gave them the decisive advantages KSCERATO's individual ceiling could not compensate for.

broky posted a 1.18 series rating with a 49-38 K-D and 74.9 ADR - the third player above 1.15 for FaZe confirming their collective individual depth across the series extended beyond frozen's primary carry role.
